This weekend, I will be running the Chevron Houston Marathon. After four months of training, me and two of my brothers will embark on the 26.2 mile journey at 7:10AM Central Time.
I love how this race has embraced technology. You can track any runner's status just by registering HERE. When the registration is completed, text messages will be sent at the 6.2 mile, 13.1 mile, 18.3 mile, and 26.2 mile marker. This is able to be done because of a chip placed on my shoe. Additionally, each runners status will be shown on a map throughout the race.
It has me asking this question: How can this crusade better utilize technology?
I welcome all suggestions!
